Summary

Vision insurance is an additional insurance to cover eye care related expenses not covered by basic health insurance. These expenses may include comprehensive eye health examinations, annual contact lens allowances, wholesale pricing on frames, and discounts on Lasik and PRK procedures. Employees may choose a full coverage plan (includes eye exams) or coverage for materials (glasses/contacts) only. Keep in mind that you may have some coverage of vision services available under your health plan.
